Great experience, loved spending the day with your team. The wine farms are truly beautiful. I do wish that the track was longer, but I would still highly recommend the experience. - Linda
Our day on the Franschoek Wine Tram was truely a 'world-class' tourism experience. We enjoyed the friendly staff, from the courteous directions we received at the Info Kiosk, to the kind assistance at the Franschoek Terminal, not to mention helpful directions and information shared by the staff on the tram itself. We want to make special mention of our hostess on the tram- Kaitlin- who went out of her way to make sure that we felt welcomed and appreciated. Kaitlin gave us useful information on the farms to be visited and made the overall experience on board more worthwhile. I would highly recommend a day on the Franschoek Wine Tram as a 'bucket list' experience and will do again when visiting the Winelands. Michael Brink, South Africa. - Michael

We loved out day on the wine tram, being able to visit several estates in the sunshine, without the need to drive. The team are all very friendly and help you seamlessly move between different places without stress! - Claire
